Green 4 Co.. in their report on cotton flu
lures, say: considerable activity has again
prevailed, with more or less irregular tone,
but firmer market was shown and yester-
davis loss pretty well recovered. A higher
start was met by advces of a serious break on
the Paris Bourse, and this caused temporary
reaction, with a tendency to sell pretty freely
in some quarters. The supply not proving
heavy, however, and buying orders coming
in. there was recovery of lone. eventual
eliminating in the advance that closed the
market firm at the extreme rates of the day
showing an advance or o0l points above last
evening. Covering was rather free and there
was considerable buying on discretionary
orders"
